Sorry it has taken me a while to get back with this chapter. i normally post every 2 or 3 days but was busy with a new member of the family just coming in lol. Here we go for part 2 of the Fantasia Arc!
Disclaimer: Naruto is owned by Masashi Kishimoto and Fairy Tail by Hiro Mashima. Anything written is purely my own thoughts.
'Remaining: Five'
"It went up. But everyone left is still stone!" Natsu looked at the other girls to see if they had like Erza also changed back.
"Who could it be?" Naruto couldn't believe what he was seeing.
"Another person who could challenge you as the strongest in the guild." Erza answered
"Oh yeah who?"
"Mystogan."
Part 2: Chapter 12: Fantasia Part 3
"Mystogan? So you think someone who became an S class last year could be stronger than me?"
"It doesn't matter now. It's time to strike back!" Makarov cheered Erza on as she rushed out of the guild.
"So do we just sit and wait or what?" Natsu questioned what to do until the runes change.
"Oh Natsu don't worry. I've got something for you." Naruto walked towards Natsu and punched him on the head. Natsu crashed into the runes blocking the door.
"Hey what the hell was that for?!" Natsu yelled at Naruto.
"I thought if I hit you hard enough you'd fly right through." Naruto gave a dry response.
"What made you think that?!"
"Oh I think it was from the same line of thinking as your earlier idea of MELTING THE STONE OFF ERZA!" Natsu tried to hide from Naruto in vain. He was about to get the beating of a lifetime. Thankfully the runes changed saving Natsu.
'Battle: Erza vs Evergreen'
"This is it." Makarov closed his eye not wanting to know the outcome.
Naruto and the rest silently stared at the rune. Waiting for it to change. Every second they waiting felt like a minute. Almost as if time had stopped.
'Victor: Erza'
They all let out a sigh of relief. They quickly turned their heads to find the stone glow and suddenly the girl returned to normal.
"Huh? What going on?" Lucy looked around her.
"LUCY!" Happy flew to Lucy hugging her tightly. Lucy was confused as to what was happening.
"I'll explain everything." Naruto walked in front of the girls.
Naruto had spent several minutes telling them what had happened, From Laxus to Erza winning against Evergreen the girls were shocked.
"The Battle of Fairy Tail." Lucy and Cana both spoke at the same time.
"Don't worry now girls. Now that your free Laxus has no hold or control of what is happening now. He'll give up soon." Makarov stated to everyone.
"But what about everyone who got hurt?" Mira was worried about the members.
"Yeah! Laxus and the other better see punishment for this!" Bisca stood up pumping her fist.
"That is something you won't have to worry about. Laxus will be punished!" Makarov tried to calm Bisca down but ended up get angry himself.
"Hold it." Natsu stopped everything. "Here's the thing. I've gotta admit it was a bit screwed up that Laxus forced everyone to fight but there's nothing worng with the basic idea of finding out who's stronger." Everyone looked at Natsu. Naruto was surprised he could speak like this. "All I'm saying is don't too harsh on the guy. So... LET'S START THE BATTLE OF FAIRY TAIL ROUND TWO!"
'I knew it was too good to be true.' Naruto thought to himself as he watch Natsu try to fight each of the girls one by one until he started to run after poor Lucy.
The runes on the door suddenly changed. The formed what looked like a jolly rodger with a lightning scar. "Can you hear me old man? And everyone else in the guild too." Everyone knew that voice as Laxus'. "It looks like we've lost one of our rules. So I'm adding a new one. So to keep the battle going. I've activated Thunder palace."
A shiver ran up the spines of Makarov and Naruto. 'He can't be thinking of using that? He'll kill everyone in the city!' Naruto was reminded of its power.
"Only One Hour and Ten minutes left. Do you think you can defeat me? Or will you play nice and 'retire?'"
"WHAT ARE YOU TRYING TO DO LAXUS! HOW DARE YOU BRING THE LIVES OF INNOCENT PEOPLE INTO!" Makarov was roaring into the air until he stopped and grabbed the left side of his chest. He fell to his knees.
"JIJI!" Naruto ran over to Makarov. The fear in his eyes scared everyone as they were looking at the master fall in shock. Mira quickly ran to get his medicine. Everyone else ran towards the master who was being held up by Naruto.
"Naruto what is this Thunder Palace?"
"Look at the sky outside." Everyone except Mira and Naruto ran up towards the roof. Naruto was shaking. He was physically shaking. He didn't know what to do. He could take on any S class job and not shake from fear. He tried his hardest not to cry. The thought of losing his grandfather scared him more than anything else. Mira looked at Naruto. She too was worried about the master but seeing Naruto like this nearly broke her own heart.
"Naruto."
"I'm alright Mira." Naruto rubbed his eyes. "I'm alright." Mira knew Naruto was lying to him but didn't say so. Soon the group all came barging back down the stairs again holding onto Bisca who was knocked out cold. "What happened?"
"Naruto, Bisca shoot down one of the lacrima above Magnolia."
"Idiot. Thunder Palace is dangerous because of the body link magic..." Naruto finally managed to calm down. "Mira take Bisca and Jiji over to the medical room. Levy How long do you think until you can get the three of us out of here?"
"I don't know but I'll try my best!"
(Naruto's mind scape)
Naruto was sitting waiting in the medical bay Levy was sitting reading books as Gajeel and Natsu watched over the Bisca and Master Makarov. Naruto needed to enter into his mind.
"So your back to normal then."
"Yes. It annoys me that I slipped for that moment. I was a fool to try and take control at that moment. If I hadn't you would have been cast in stone and then I could have taken control."
"Yeah keep telling yourself that. Your in MY body. If my body turns to stone then so does my mind. And that includes you. But I'm not here for that." Naruto lifted both of his hands.
"What are you doing brat?" The Nine Tails questioned as the golden flames around Naruto flowed towards the gap in the cage blocking the Nine Tails.
"It might not be as strong as the shield that kept you out for four years but it should buy me enough time to keep you out for a few hours or so."
"And why would you need me out of the way?"
"Cause I'm going to fight Laxus. And I'm not gonna be holding back. Truth be told I'm already at boiling point. I can't have you trying to take control in this fight. I'm not having a repeat of the S class promotion. I'm gonna win."
The Nine Tails stared at Naruto. "Fine I've got better things to do anyway." The Nine Tails turned and slowly crouched down and started to sleep.
Naruto left his mind space and when he came back he left the medical bay and looked at the runes on the doorway.
'Battle: Lucy vs Bixlow'
'Battle: Cana vs Juvia'
'Victor: Cana'
'Battle: Cana vs Freed'
'Cana won that quickly? No something else happened. Something that I'm missing here.' Naruto tried to think of something he knew Juvia wasn't so weak as to lose that quickly. But Levy soon came bursting our of the medical bay.
"I've done it!" Levy ran towards the runes. They kept updating while Levy worked.
'Victor: Lucy'
They all gave a cheer from Lucy's win except Gajeel who looked shocked at she actually beat the same guy who Gray couldn't beat.
'Victor: Freed'
Naruto looked worried about this. Cana was an old friend someone who he knew the longest in the guild he hoped she wasn't hurt badly.
"Done. Try it!" Levy asked the three mages to walk past the doors. Naruto walked forwards. He stopped moving when he came to the point he would've been stopped by the runes. He tried to punch the rune but hit nothing but fresh air.
"Levy your a genesis! Natsu, Gajeel listen up. I'm guessing the city is covered in traps so split up and if you see Erza or Mystogan avoid getting too close. My guess is they activate when two mages get close to each other."
"I'm all fired up now! First one to Laxus gets to fight him!"
"I'm gonna get there before you Salamander."
"Actually Natsu, Gajeel. You've both already lost. FLYIING RAIJIN!" In a golden flash Naruto disappeared.
"He's marked Laxus! That's unfair!" Natsu started to complain.
"No." He turned to look at Levy. "He hasn't marked Laxus. There is only five mages in Fairy Tail Naruto hasn't marked. Gajeel, Juvia, Gildarts, Mystogan and Laxus. He probably looking for him now."
"That gives me a chance!" Natus soon ran off as fast as he could. Gajeel soon followed after him. Levy then returned to m,edical bay but took one last look at the runes before she left. She soon wished she hadn't.
'Battle: Freed vs Mirajane'
Naruto was searching all over Magnolia. He tried to think where Laxus would be. Until he looked at the Thunder Palace above. "Thunder Palace destroys from the outside and moves inwards My guess he's somewhere in the most central places of Magnolia.'"Naruto thought out loud to himself as he turned to face the Church. "Right in the middle. Plus with the high tower he could use that to lift himself up and become a lightning rod. If he eats the lightning it won't affect him. I've seen past you game Laxus. FLYING RAIJIN!" Naruto soon found himself standing outside of the church.
"I didn't expect you to be the first to arrive here. Tell me how you got out so soon... Little Brother."
"You can thank Levy for that. And what can I say. Sometimes I'm unpredictable... Big Brother."
"Oh that you are. But I'm surprised the little slave girl managed to do that. It's been too long since the last time we fought."
"Almost four years. I'm disappointed you don't have a great deal of faith in your fellow guild members. Levy not as stupid as you think. She's as smart as an S class. Heck she's smarter than both of us. But try not to remember about the last fight. It's gonna be a different result this time around."
"I won then and I'll win this time. Twenty minutes until Thunder Palace activates." Laxus then was surprised at who was walking behind Naruto. "So Mr. Sleepy head is here. Mystogan."
And Cut. I'm leaving just before the battle. Building a bit of tension lol. Anyway here's this chapter's Q&A
1) Now Naruto has magic will Edolas happen? Still no. I do have something else planned though. I'm not gonna do all of the Fairy Tail arcs but I have some things in mind to kind of replace them.
2) Why are you only following Naruto for most of cannon? It's because he's the title character for this FanFiction. I will be throwing in a Erza, Natsu, Gray, Lucy or any other fight in as well but the story is mainly following Naruto.
3) Is Madara making a show in this? Yes. That's all i'm going to say.
4) Favourite Anime Character? Tough really tough question. There are so many to choice from. But I'm going to go with Yamcha. LOL! Naw It's another Dragonball character. The Prince himself Vegeta! Why? Vegeta's a bad ass that's why. He goes from destroyer of worlds to getting Bulma.
So that's all for this chapter. Hope you've all enjoyed it. Till next time.
